Sima Luocheng once again rejected Simeng Ruxia's request to assassinate Gong Ziliang. Although Simeng knew his worries, he really couldn't appreciate it. He thought to himself that in order for the fifty thousand people in Xizhou City to not be tortured by the war, even if
Even if it means risking her life.
But Sima Luocheng didn't agree, so she couldn't act according to the plan, so she had to take a step back and said: "Your Majesty is afraid that I can't accomplish anything by myself, so why not let Senior Brother Feng accompany me? With him here, Your Majesty should feel relieved.
Let's go! The matter is urgent and the authority is right. Even if the high priest has the ability to reach heaven, he still has to take into account the fate of the king of Shang. If you don't nod your head and agree, let me and Brother Feng go. If you miss tonight, you will regret it too late."
When she spoke, her eyebrows were slightly twisted, and there was a deep murderous intention in her eyes, which shocked Yifeng. Although he had heard that tens of thousands of mortals in Fuyang died at the hands of that young master, he had never thought of the charming and lovely person in front of him.
The dream seems to have murderous intentions for others one day.
But whether it was in the past or in the world now, if it is what she wants to do, Yifeng will definitely follow her wishes.
He only glanced at Meng'er and said, "Although Meng'er's move is extremely dangerous, you don't have to worry because I'm here!"
He only thought that with his power, it would be easy to deal with a mortal young master who did not know the magic. However, he did not expect that the result of this trip would be so bloody and tragic.
At this moment, Simeng and Yifeng were both waiting for Sima Luocheng's reply. Seeing that he was silent, they thought he was going to refuse again.
Unexpectedly, he just remained silent for a moment and then nodded, but at that moment his eyes were filled with deep helplessness.
He always thought that he was the king of a country and was strong enough to stop relying on the power of others, especially her.
But looking back on this journey, he owed her so much.
However, it is urgent now. If she is not allowed to give it a try, Xizhou will be defeated tonight, and he will be the eternal sinner of Yun Kingdom.
Although he didn't object at this moment, he was still worried about the two of them going on an adventure. He originally wanted to order ten agile shadow guards to accompany him, just in case.
Unexpectedly, Simeng was only willing to let Yifeng accompany her, saying that going there was extremely dangerous and it would be inconvenient to have a large number of people. It would be better for the two of them to adapt to circumstances.
Sima Luocheng could only tell the two of them in a deep voice, "Brother Feng, it would be best if you can take the life of that young master Liang. If you can't, you must not force it. Although the Xia army is strong, we, the soldiers of the Yun Kingdom, are not.
Incompetent people, it will not be easy for them to capture Xizhou tonight. Regardless of whether it succeeds or not, you two must rush to the Langshan forest before three quarters tomorrow to wait for the round with me!"
Hearing this, Yifeng cupped his hands and nodded.
Shi Meng listened to him talking about Langshan Mountain, and suddenly remembered that he had said during the patrol in the city today that Langshan Mountain was the last barrier in Xizhou. She didn't think about it deeply at the time, but now that she thought about it, she was afraid that he had already had other plans.
"Langshan? Your Majesty, could it be..."
Sima Luocheng nodded heavily, "Don't worry Meng'er, no matter what, I will never let what happened in Fuyang County happen again in Xizhou!"
Xi Meng couldn't help but admire how deep Sima Luocheng's thoughts were. Even she didn't know that he had made arrangements secretly. No wonder the inner city was so empty today, it was probably already half an empty city.
Now that she had decided to go into danger, she still couldn't worry about Long Hai. Before leaving, she hurriedly went to check out his tent and felt a little relieved after seeing that he was safe and sound.
Unavoidable that he was worried about her, she deliberately concealed her trip to assassinate Xia. She only told him to take good care of himself, be extra careful about the people around him, and never be careless.
Gongbo Longhai looked tired. He had not yet recovered from the fatigue of the long journey. He just nodded in confusion and accepted the master's instructions.
At the last moment, Chen Yucai, the commander-in-chief of Xizhou City, gave an order, and the heavy Xizhou City Gate slowly opened with the combined efforts of dozens of soldiers.
However, it was just a gap that could allow one person to pass through. Two figures, one white and one green, jumped across the gap and walked out of Xizhou City one after the other.
Both of them were dressed in official uniforms of the Yun Kingdom, with their hair tied into crowns. The dazzling rubies on the crowns symbolized their status. According to the official system of the Yun State, only officials of third rank or above could wear red gemstone crowns.
The Xia army's camp was less than three miles away from the gate of Xizhou City. After the previous raid and siege, many soldiers still did not withdraw to the camp.
At this moment, I saw two people suddenly walking out of Xizhou City, approaching the Yun Kingdom government. The white figure among them was waving a plain white silk handkerchief in his right hand. The entire Xia Army's vanguard camp was on alert, and the cavalry were ready to go.
There were bursts of neighing, and the archers had already set up their arrows on their crossbows. Just waiting for the general's order, the two men would be shot through with thousands of arrows.
But when the soldiers of the Xia army were staring at the two men motionlessly, they could only hear the low surrender drum coming from the Xizhou city tower. The tense nerves of the Xia army suddenly relaxed, and even the cavalry horses gradually became quiet.
They stopped neighing, as if even they knew what the sound of the drums meant.
Just as the surrender drums were ringing over Xizhou City, the people in the inner city were divided into two groups, protected by more than a thousand soldiers, and retreated to Langshan in an orderly manner through the secret passages in the government office and the general's mansion.
In the Langshan Forest, 30,000 reinforcements led by Wei Xiang arrived from Qingyang County overnight, but they did not enter Xizhou City to set up camp. Instead, they set up camp in a large grassland deep in the jungle.
Langshan is located in the northwest of Yun Kingdom. There are many tall trees in the mountain with lush branches. Half of the people in the city had hid in the mountains with the army during the day, but Xia Jun was not aware of it at all.
However, this move is not a long-term solution. Just eating for tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians is a big problem. If the fire is set, the whereabouts will be revealed, but if the fire is not started, dry food alone can only last two days.
The soldiers of Sima Luo City made a dangerous move. They once again ordered people to sneak into the summer camp to burn food. At the same time, they ordered Mi Meng and Yi Feng to pretend to surrender. But if Gong Ziliang saw through it, I am afraid that the defenders of Xizhou City would have to endure a lot.
Those arrows rained down.
After Simeng and Yifeng left, Chang Yi and Xu Rong urged him to evacuate to Langshan again, but he only said that the high priest was there, so there was no need to worry.
Chang Yi and Xu Rong saw that he insisted on staying in the army, so they had no choice but to stay outside the tent, not daring to leave.
Inside the tent, Lu Li was wearing a black robe and standing with his hands behind his back, as if everything that happened here had nothing to do with him and he just happened to appear here.
Sima Luocheng, on the other hand, was just the opposite. He was restless and couldn't help but asked seriously: "I wonder if Bing'er has anything she needs to do alone. Please let the high priest clarify!"
He didn't call Baili Bing your king, but deliberately called her by her maiden name. He just wanted Lu Li to understand that he and Baili Bing were engaged and would become a family sooner or later. At present, the war in Yunxia was stalemate, so he only hoped that Lu Li could sincerely
Just help him.
He couldn't hold it back in the end. He originally thought that he had carefully planned and planned secretly, and even Meng'er, who followed him every day, didn't say a word, so he would be able to safely defend Xizhou this time.
But even though Wei Xiang arrived with a night march, and even though most of the people in the city had settled in the mountains and forests, the sudden arrow rain from Xia's army just now still made him feel slightly timid.
